This afternoon, as I was walking down the street, I had some sort of music epiphany. Oddly enough it happened while I was listening to Nine Inch Nail's "The Wretched". Everything formulated and clicked in my head, how certain chords, sounds, patterns and repetitions can come together to make the perfect song. I'm sure there's some kind of music theory behind this but I don't think it's something that can be readily explained. Maybe it's because since I started playing the guitar, you just pay more attention to notes and chords and beats than just what the singer is saying. (although that's crucial too) Right now I feel like Thom Yorke is channeling every sound/note/beat/rhythm I could possibly want to hear in this song:
I think I'm on my 100th listening or something. It's perfect. It's so perfect I can even excuse it for being on the soundtrack of the movie that will not be mentioned in my blog ever. I feel like everything Thom's worked on recently was made for my ears. It's almost scary.
That being said, I think I will update this thing more. Again.
